Hello, I have purchased your pdf2img product and am having an issue converting the attached PDF to TIF.
I am using the following command:
pdf2img.exe -m -r 300 -b 1 -c g4 -i test.pdf -o test.tif
The resulting TIF has black spots all over the page.
Please assist. Thanks.
======================
Please download VeryDOC PDF to Image Converter from following web page to try,
https://www.verydoc.com/pdf-to-image.html
The following command line will convert all of your PDF files to 24bit color TIFF files with LZW compression, for the color PDF file, it will convert color PDF file to smallest color TIFF file,
pdf2img.exe -r 100 -compress 5 -multipage 9738.pdf 9738.tif
however, for the BW PDF file, you should add "-mono" parameter to force render this PDF file to BW TIFF file, for example,
pdf2img.exe -mono -r 100 -compress 4 -multipage 9738.pdf 9738.tif

I am currently using the following command and my resulting TIF files are almost 3 times as large as the PDF.
pdf2img.exe -r 100 -compress 5 -multipage 9738.pdf 9738.tif
Please advise.
We are currently trying to convert multi page PDFs which may or may not have color pages to the smallest TIF possible but keeping decent quality. Can you assist?
======================
You can add "-mono" parameter to convert your PDF file to smaller TIFF files, for example,
pdf2img.exe -mono -r 100 -compress 5 -multipage 9738.pdf 9738.tif

=========================
Will that keep the color?
Is it possible to convert a PDF to tif and make the file the same size or smaller?

=======================
No, -mono parameter can't keep the color, it will convert your PDF file to BW TIFF file, it will create smaller TIFF files from your PDF files.

Then I can't use it. I need it to convert to a color TIF.
=========================
Thanks for your message, your command line options are good enough to create the smaller TIFF file,
pdf2img.exe -r 100 -compress 5 -multipage 9738.pdf 9738.tif
because PDF file is contain text contents, the TIFF file is just contain image data, the size of image data is bigger than text contents, so the TIFF file's size is bigger than original PDF file, this is normal.
VeryDOC
=========================
For example, this PDF when converted to TIF is no less than 3 MB...that is almost 3 times the size!
I have tried all compression values and 5 gives me the smallest TIF but that TIF is still 3 MB which is almost 3 times the size.
Please assist.
=========================
We have checked your PDF file, your PDF file is contain BW images, it hasn't any color information, so you have to add "-mono" to convert this PDF file to BW TIFF files, the "-mono" option will retain the smaller file size, for example,
pdf2img.exe -r 100 -compress 4 -mono -multipage 9738.pdf 9738.tif
